The events will be held at SAE’s Atlanta, Chicago, Los Angeles, Miami, Nashville, New York, and San Francisco campuses.

“SAE understands how to prepare aspiring creative media pros for the real world,” says Marco Bettelli, CEO of SAE Institute USA. “Our open house events will give prospective students a taste of what we have to offer – including information about our Audio Technology, Electronic Music Production, Beat Lab Production, Music Business, and iPhone Application Development programs - and how our overall methodology will provide them with the foundation and tools they need to be employable once they graduate.”
